Emberlight Festival

Flags from many countries wave in the breeze as they hang from the eave of the Historic Ironwood Depot early Friday afternoon. The flags represent the various countries of origin for contributors to the 2022 Emberlight Festival. Friday was the opening of Mary Burns' "Ancetral Women Exhibit: Wisconsin's 12 Tribes" and the "Emberlight Photographers" show, both on display in the depot through the two-month festival of visual and performance art in Ironwood. The Art in the Park exhibit opens today at the Miners Memorial Park. Concerts, a film festival and other happenings are planned through August at various venues in Ironwood.
